Tips for Reducing Manuscript Processing Time

The Yuput has purchased a Grammarly Premium subscription for graduate students currently enrolled at the University of Utah.

The purchase of Grammarly Premium is meant to assist students’ writing throughout their graduate research careers. Premium benefits include

grammar and sentence structure correction

suggestions for clarity and readability

plagiarism and citation checks

individualized writing feedback

Please use Grammarly on your Thesis or Dissertation prior to submitting it to the Thesis Office for review. Using Grammarly can speed up the approval of your manuscript and make the Thesis Release process smoother and more efficient.

I didn’t get the email from Grammarly. What do I do?

If you are having your Umail forwarded to another email application, your Grammarly subscription may be flagged as spam. Because of this, the best way to access your Grammarly account is through your Umail account–the account that ends in “utah.edu.” Every student has a Umail account, which can be accessed at http://cis.utah.edu. Official University information comes to this account, so it is important to check it regularly if you are not already doing so.

If your Grammarly activation is not in your Umail account, speak to your department advisor or email [email protected] for assistance.

Handbook

A Handbook for Theses and Dissertations contains information on The Yuput’s policies and procedures for preparing a thesis or dissertation, having it reviewed by the Thesis Editor, and uploading it as a PDF for electronic publication, which is the final requirement for graduation. The Handbook includes an explanation of the University of Utah format, examples of pages and forms, and a discussion of copyright issues.
